IC Questions

Character Name: Giuseppe "Big Gino" Costello.
Character Age: 39.
How does your character look:

Your background story:
The Italian Mafia originated in Sicily in the middle nineteenth century. It was originally a rebellion in the rural areas in Sicily by the powerful farm owners against the incoming Spaniards. Those few men that vowed to protect the weaker farmers during the rebellion soon after realized that protection was a great was of earning easy money. These men soon after began forming clans or organizations under one man that would be known as the leader of the organization.

During the time of immigration during the early nineteen-hundreds many Sicilian immigrants along with Italians migrated to America in search of a many things including freedom from prosecution, wealth, and overall a better life. Although some of these men women and children were indeed innocent, there were many members of the clans within the crowds; and unknowingly to most of the natives during that time period, they'd take over.

The clans that protected their towns during the Spaniard's reign of terror in Sicily soon became known as families; each group become known individually by their founder's name. Examples of this can be found largely within the New York crime families such as the: Lucchese, Bonanno, Gambino, Genovese, and Colombo crime families.

These families used their numbers and influence to gain power in their neighborhoods and cities alike. They lined their pockets with money made from illegal schemes and plots. Most of the crime committed in these small cultural neighborhoods had something to do with the families or their associates. The problem for police was little was known about these families due to their extreme policies of secrecy and their known acts of violence against those that went against those policies.

These families have since spread to cities all over America like Philadelphia, Brooklyn, Chicago and many more. In-fact, most urban cities in America have been over taken by these large families. In the early nineteen-seventies a particular family had settled in Liberty City. Known as the Leone Family they quickly took control of their local neighborhoods and in-turn most of the crime going on in the area had something to do with them. Salvatore Leone, the head of the Leone family, was murdered in the late ninety's by an associate known as Claude.

Since his murder most of the Leone family divided amongst themselves and the fight for power began. A large percentage the family went to Los Santos in search of Claude since they knew that's where he came from they thought that he might head back. However, Claude was still no where to be found. Feeling defeated, most of the family settled in Los Santos seeing as it was an ideal place to be, much like in the seventies when they tried to settle in Vice City; the weather was great, there was a large amount of power that was yet to be taken by any of the local street gangs, and there was infinite opportunities to make mass amounts of money.

Well into the ninety's the remaining Leone's went there separate ways as well. This was a simple solution since most of whom where either dead, too old to be active members, or in prison anyways. What remained of the able-bodied Leone's let the family dwindle into nothing, but their gangster ways remained. They didn't claim to be a specific family but few of the remaining Leone's that wanted to remain loyal to the way of the olden-days of the Cosa Nostra and their power stuck together. They taught their children the way of the family and keeping their hand in the pockets of smaller businesses. But no-one had claimed the spot as the Boss of the family.

Over a decade later there was a new generation of mobsters; most of which were in their twenties to thirties. They followed nearly all of the old principles of the old family but they did change some things to fit more into their favor. These modern mobsters were comparable to a street gang, but slightly more powerful and a great deal wealthier.

This new generation was lead by two brothers Giuseppe and Gabriel Costello. Unlike their predecessors these two had several ideas that originated from the Cosa Nostra's, the only difference was the brothers altered these ideas to benefit themselves. With Giuseppe leading the family and assuming the position as the boss profits began to rise and their criminal empire's began. The Costello Crew began to grow in a sense of wealth and public fear. They also began to gain respect from people throughout the city. Some say this is the way in which the Costello's gained great fame in Los Santos.

Planning to make some people as caporegime's and give them a feature to lead their own crew, some of special soldiers are being controlled by caporegime's and caporegime's are being controlled by Boss and Underboss.

That will give us oportunity to make some crew's (Example Dimarco's Crew, Vinewood Crew, Santorra Crew), it will be done inside AM, leaders of these crew's will be able to creat a topic on AM forum, to post their Soldiers and more information what their crew are doing.

-1 You can RP that's a fact but I don't see much creativity or leadership in your RPs you're a passive RPers at least that's my opinion
